"Maybe soon." Xuanyuan Junfan comforted Lu Zhiyao, "People's thoughts sometimes change very quickly."
Lu Zhiyao glanced at him feebly and lowered his head. People's thoughts sometimes change quickly, but no matter how Liao Wuhen changed, it would not be what she expected. She was still sure of this.
"Eat, eat, the last meal, it's good to be full." Xuanyuan Junfan pushed the food towards Lu Zhiyao, "If you don't have enough, you won't be able to win if you go back and fight."
Lu Zhiyao nodded repeatedly to express his agreement. Only by eating and drinking enough and confronting Liao Wuhen would he have a chance of winning.
The two of them stayed in the restaurant for about half an hour, spending most of the time chatting about the two countries and the future.
Xuanyuan Junfan looked at the sky and felt a little groggy. It seemed like it was going to rain. So he paid the bill and left with Lu Zhiyao.
The two parted ways, Xuanyuan Junfan returned to his palace, and Lu Zhiyao walked towards the mountain. When he reached the mountain, Lu Zhiyuan heard the sound of a pack of wolves running towards him in the distance. He stopped and looked in confusion, and sure enough, he was not there.
After a while, dozens of snow-white wolves appeared in Lu Zhiyao's sight. They seemed to be frightened. After seeing Lu Zhiyao, they all gathered around and started howling.
This is not a normal situation. These beasts usually can't even run away when they see her. What happened today?
Lu Zhiyao was confused and was about to go back to the valley to see what happened. But at this time, another person appeared in front of her.
"Xiaoying? Why are you here?"
"I have nothing to do in the palace and wanted to come see you, Senior Liao..." Mo Xiaoying hesitated for a moment and said with a wry smile: "I'm practicing in the mountains. I followed these beasts up here to take refuge. I haven't come here for a walk before.
I didn’t expect that I would actually meet you.”
"No wonder." Lu Zhiyao nodded thoughtfully, "I'll accompany you. The agency over there hasn't been evacuated yet. If you go in now, Xuanyuan Haotian will wish me to die early."
Mo Xiaoying smiled sheepishly and followed Lu Zhiyao. She glanced at the place where she came from with a strange look, and there was a hint of uneasiness in her eyes.
Lu Zhiyao walked in front of Mo Xiaoying and didn't notice anything was wrong. Along the way, the sky became darker and darker, and the rain finally started to fall.
Lu Zhiyao took Mo Xiaoying to the depths of the woods. Mo Xiaoying looked in surprise at the big tree several meters thick in front of him and the wooden house on the tree, and was a little dumbfounded.
"I made this for some children before. Come up quickly, don't get wet." Lu Zhiyao urged Mo Xiaoying to climb up the tree, and then he also got into the wooden house.
The two of them listened to the sound of rain outside and looked down at the toys left behind by several children in the hut, with faint smiles on their faces.
"Zhiyao." Suddenly, Mo Xiaoying spoke. "Your Majesty knows about the child."
"Um."
"I also explained your matter clearly to him."
Lu Zhiyao smiled slightly and said: "Xiaoying, no matter if there is any conflict between Xuanyuan Haotian and me, it will not be because of you. He and I are opposites, and it is impossible to live in peace. So you don't have to
I blame myself, and there is no need to keep saying good things about me in front of him. Just let nature take its course. He and I will not be enemies, but we will not be friends either."
"I understand." Mo Xiaoying pursed her lips and nodded. She knew Xuanyuan Haotian's temper all too well. This time, no matter what Lu Zhiyao did, it was all agreed upon with her. She is a bad person.
Everyone has done it. Xuanyuan Haotian must have firmly believed that he has been led by Lu Zhiyao and can no longer be bad, so every time Lu Zhiyao is mentioned, he gnashes his teeth.
"When are you going to leave?"
"I'll leave tomorrow. My grandpa doesn't want me to stay here anymore. There's no point in staying any longer."
Although it's a pity, it can only be like this. Things are not perfect, and Lu Zhiyao understands that some things really cannot be forced.
After listening to Lu Zhiyao's words, Mo Xiaoying smiled mysteriously. "Senior Liao is just being tough. I think it's hard to say whether you can leave tomorrow."
"What... do you mean?" Lu Zhiyao carefully observed Mo Xiaoying's expression, which made Mo Xiaoying's smile freeze. "What did my grandfather say? It's impossible."
"I didn't say anything, but you are his only relative, so there is no reason for him not to love you. Now that I think about it, he is actually pretty good to you. No one else but you can learn that unique skill.
He probably doesn’t intend to pass it on to others. There are also those children in Qinghan. I think he likes them very much, but he just doesn’t say anything about them.”
Lu Zhiyao smiled silently and turned his head to look at the scenery outside.
"Zhiyao, have you ever thought about asking Senior Liao to go to Xialai Country with you?"
"I thought about it, but it's impossible. He can't go."
"Lin Yinan knows what you think?" Mo Xiaoying asked.
"I didn't say it, but he should be able to guess it."
"No wonder..." Mo Xiaoying turned her eyes and whispered. Although her voice was low, Lu Zhiyao still heard it.
"No wonder?" Lu Zhiyao remembered Liao Wuhen's hurried away figure when he saw him on the street. He looked at Mo Xiaoying a little warily and asked, "Is he really practicing in the mountains?"
While the two were talking, the rain outside gradually stopped. Mo Xiaoying looked past Lu Zhiyao and looked outside, thinking about the scene she saw inside the mountain, and swallowed her saliva.
"Well, yes." Mo Xiaoying said with a vague look: "I am practicing, but I still have an opponent to practice with."
Lu Zhiyao opened his eyes suddenly and asked reflexively: "Lin Yinan?!"
Mo Xiaoying chuckled lightly and replied: "Well, yes, it's Lin Yinan. I guess the fight is almost over by now."
As soon as Mo Xiaoying finished speaking, Lu Zhiyao's figure disappeared in front of her. In the distance, she heard Lu Zhiyao's voice.
"Stay here and don't wander around. I'll come back to pick you up later!"
Lu Zhiyao was a little confused. No wonder the fur of those beasts stood on end as if they had seen a ghost. She shouldn't have believed Mo Xiaoying's words. It was all her fault for being careless. Thinking about it, she knew that these wolves all followed Liao Wu.
How many years has it been since Liao Wuhen? How could she be easily frightened by Liao Wuhen's practice! But she really didn't expect that Lin Yinan would appear here. Calculating the time, could it be that he came with Xuanyuan Haotian and the others?
?
Lu Zhiyao kept making guesses all the way, and when he ran back to the valley, there was no sign of a fight.
It was quiet all around, and Lu Zhiyao took every step carefully. She looked around for Liao Wuhen and Lin Yinan, and finally she found Qingmo in the small courtyard.
"Mom!" Qing Mo ran towards Lu Zhiyao, hugged his thigh, stretched out his little hand and pointed into the distance, leaking the secret: "Dad is over there!"
